Answer:

The original price of the book was $12.50

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 0.2(3x) + 10 = 40
30x - 2(3x) + 100 = 400
   30x - 6x + 100 = 400
           24x + 100 = 400
                     24x = 300
                         x = 12.50

Describe and correct the error a student made in finding the midpoint cd with c(-4,5) and d(-1,-4).
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the midpoint of two coordinates is expressed as;

M(X,Y) = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Given the coordinates c(-4,5) and d(-1,-4), x1 = -4, y1 = 5, x2 = -1 and y2 = -4.

For the X coordinate of the midpoint

X = x1+x2/2

X = -4+(-1)/2

X = -4-1/2

X = -5/2

X = -2.5

Similarly for Y:

Y = y1+y2/2

Y = 5+(-4)/2

Y = 5-4/2

Y = 1/2

Y = 0.5

Hence the midpoint coordinate of C(-4,5) and D (-1,-4) is (-2.5, 0.5)

What is the ratio a:b if 8a=3b?
Digiron [165]

The ratio a:b is 3:8

Step-by-step explanation:

In simple words, the ratio a:b means the fraction a/b.

So we will have to solve the given equation for a/b

Given

8a=3b

Dividing both sides by 8

\frac{8a}{8}=\frac{3b}{8}\\a=\frac{3b}{8}

Dividing both sides by b

\frac{a}{b}=\frac{3b}{8*b}\\\frac{a}{b} =\frac{3}{8}

The ratio a:b is 3:8

Anyone know how to do this with a explanation ?
storchak [24]

Answer:

30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that all triangles equal 180 degrees, we can add the 2 given angles and subtract that from 180 to find the remaining angle.

90+60=150

180-150=30 degrees
